very fishe

"THERE SOMETHING FishE About THIS"

Found in an antique store in Georgetown.
It seems to be hand-painted and was found in a bin with some other similar hand-painted signs, each containing a year between 1975 and 1979. Does this mean anything?

From Seattle Stranger SLOG.

"Apology's" for the poor quality photo. This is from one of my favorite places, so I'm not disclosing--but really? Why is it "different brewery's" but not "different style's?"

The weigh to my heart...might be through this eraser-colored wall...or being nice. WHOAH!
